In the present invention, the pulse of a subject is detected by a pulse sensor, and a pulse signal representing the pulse is acquired (S11).

Disclosed herein is a system for diagnosing a deficient pulse and an forceful pulse.

Pulse rate calculating means (14) calculates the pulse rate.

The data processing unit has complete record of pulse diagnosis specialists' clinical experience including pulse feeling technique, pulse sensation of fingers, pulse condition estimate etc..

The analog pressure-sensitive element(s) receives pressure applied by a user's finger (76) or thumb to the depressible surface, varied pressure applied by the user determines varied value of the signal.

The pulse interval decode (30) generates a pulse interval length signal (35) which represents the current pulse interval length at any one time.

The present invention relates to an arm-fastening device for a sphygmomanometer, a pulse sensor, a sphygmomanometer apparatus comprising the device and sensor, and a method for manufacturing the pulse sensor.

Weakness of the pulse or, conversely, a more frequent pulse

High heart rate (Pulse): The message "High pulse" will appear.

Moreover, the dual-sensing pulse diagnosis apparatus can digitalize Chinese Physician's pulse feeling experience and enable physicians to publish their clinical data of pulse diagnosis.

A pulse detection unit detects an amplitude-wise change in the amplitude signal as a pulse signal.

The pulse diagnotic device measures pulse condition information at an examinee's Cun (~\f~), Gu (H), and Chi (,R) pulse-taking locations on his or her wrist using one or more pulse-taking sensors.

There is absence of distal pulses (conserving popliteal pulse).

Thus, a pulse signal is obtained.

The housing further houses a pulse rate monitor for monitoring the pulse of a user.
